[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 A dynamic testing instrument for high and low strain foundation piles with an improved buffer structure includes a mounting frame 5 and an instrument body 8. The instrument body 8 is installed inside the mounting frame 5. Lower connecting plates 17 are fixed on both sides of the rear end of the mounting frame 5, and a buffer spring 18 is fixed on the top of the lower connecting plate 17. Upper connecting plates 20 are installed on both sides of the top of the rear end of the instrument body 8. A damper 19 is installed inside the buffer spring 18. A second knob 21 is installed at the rear end of the upper connecting plate 20. Screw holes 22 are opened on both sides of the top of the rear end of the instrument body 8. Sliding rods 13 are vertically fixed on both sides of the bottom end of the mounting frame 5. Sliding sleeves 23 are fixed at the middle positions of both sides of the rear end of the instrument body 8. A test wire harness 7 is installed on the left side of the mounting frame 5. A connector 10 is installed and fixed on the left side of the top of the instrument body 8.
[0026] The top end of the buffer spring 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the upper connecting plate 20, the top end of the damper 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the upper connecting plate 20, and the bottom end of the damper 19 is fixedly connected to the top end of the lower connecting plate 17. The buffer spring 18 is symmetrically arranged about the vertical center line of the instrument body 8. The front end of the second knob 21 passes through the interior of the upper connecting plate 20, and the exterior of the second knob 21 is provided with external threads. The top end of the slide rod 13 passes through the interior of the slide sleeve 23. The damper 19 reduces the vibration amplitude of the object by consuming vibration energy. It works with the buffer spring 18 to absorb the vibration of the pile dynamic measuring instrument during the carrying process. Depending on the actual needs, the damper 19 can be a hydraulic damper, a viscoelastic damper, etc. The appropriate specification of the damper 19 is selected and installed according to the size of the mounting frame 5 and the instrument body 8.
[0027] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, buffer springs 18 are fixed on both sides of the rear end inside the mounting frame 5. The two sets of buffer springs 18 can assist in buffering and offsetting the vertical vibration generated during the carrying of the instrument body 8, reducing the vibration caused to the main body of the instrument body 8 during the carrying process. This facilitates buffer protection when carrying and moving the dynamic testing instrument. At the same time, during the carrying process, the pile dynamic testing instrument will be subjected to various vibrations. If these vibrations are directly transmitted to the instrument body 8, they can easily damage the internal precision detection components. When the dynamic testing instrument is subjected to vibration, the elastic deformation of the buffer springs 18 and the energy consumption of the damper 19 absorb and disperse the vibration energy, reducing the impact of vibration on the instrument body. The instrument body is protected from impact, thus protecting internal components from damage. When the dynamic testing instrument is performing testing, the buffer spring 18 is in a relatively static state. At this time, the dynamic testing instrument is connected to the foundation pile through the test cable 7. By striking the top of the foundation pile, a stress wave is generated. The stress wave propagates along the direction of the foundation pile. The dynamic testing instrument obtains test data based on the one-dimensional elastic rod stress wave fluctuation theory. It is worth noting that the above-mentioned buffer structure will not interfere with the detection principle and signal acquisition of the dynamic testing instrument during this process. It only plays a protective role during the carrying process and is independent of the detection function of the dynamic testing instrument. There is no essential conflict between them. It can effectively protect the dynamic testing instrument without affecting its normal detection function.
[0028] The mounting bracket 5 has a fixed post 3 at its bottom end, and a mounting plate 14 is welded to the top of the fixed post 3. A fixed sleeve 4 is welded to the top of the outside of the fixed post 3, and a fixed frame 25 is welded to the outside of the fixed sleeve 4. A support leg 2 is vertically arranged on the outside of the fixed post 3, and a backing plate 1 is hinged to the inside of the bottom end of the support leg 2. A fixed head 26 is welded to the top of the support leg 2. A screw 24 is arranged on the left side of the fixed frame 25, and a washer 27 is arranged on the right side of the fixed frame 25. A locking ring 28 is arranged on the right side of the washer 27. A lead screw 16 is welded to both sides of the bottom end of the mounting bracket 5. A locking ring 15 is arranged on both sides of the bottom end of the mounting plate 14. The bottom end of the lead screw 16 passes through the inside of the mounting plate 14. The inside of the locking ring 15 is provided with an internal thread that mates with the external thread of the lead screw 16. The right side of the screw 24 passes through the inside of the fixed frame 25 and the fixing head 26. The fixed frame 25 and the support leg 2 are arranged in three sets at equal intervals in a ring on the outside of the fixed sleeve 4.
[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, two sets of lead screws 16 can be inserted through the interior of the mounting plate 14 at the bottom of the mounting frame 5, and the locking ring 15 can be screwed into the outside of the lead screws 16 to fix the fixing column 3 to the mounting frame 5. Then, the mounting frame 5 and the instrument body 8 can be fixed to the ground with auxiliary support using three sets of abutment plates 1 and support legs 2, without the need for hand-holding.
[0030] The instrument body 8 is provided with protective sleeves 6 on both sides of the outside, and the top and bottom of the protective sleeves 6 are respectively provided with first knobs 9. The top and bottom of both sides of the instrument body 8 are respectively provided with threaded holes 11. Multiple sets of protrusions 12 are fixed on the instrument body 8 at equal intervals. The protrusions 12 and the instrument body 8 are made of silicone.
[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, protective sleeves 6 are installed and fixed on both sides of the instrument body 8. The two sets of protective sleeves 6 can provide auxiliary protection against collisions and impacts to the outside of the instrument body 8, reducing damage to the outside of the instrument body 8. At the same time, multiple sets of protruding strips 12 are evenly spaced on one side of the protective sleeves 6, which can play a role in preventing slippage when holding the instrument body 8.
[0032] Working Principle: When this utility model is carried and used, buffer springs 18 are installed and fixed on both sides of the rear end inside the mounting frame 5. The two sets of buffer springs 18 can assist in buffering and offsetting the vertical vibration generated during the carrying of the instrument body 8, and provide buffer protection for the dynamic testing instrument during carrying and moving. When using the pile dynamic testing instrument, the second knobs 21 on the upper connecting plates 20 on both sides of the rear end of the instrument body 8 can be turned out from the inside of the screw holes 22 to remove the instrument body 8 from the inside of the mounting frame 5 and disassemble it for independent use. At the same time, when the pile dynamic testing instrument is used for testing, two sets of screw rods 16 can be inserted through the inside of the mounting plate 14 at the bottom of the mounting frame 5, and the locking rings 15 can be screwed into the outside of the screw rods 16 to fix them. The column 3 is fixed to the mounting frame 5. Then, the mounting frame 5 and the instrument body 8 can be further supported and fixed to the ground using three sets of abutment plates 1 and support legs 2, eliminating the need for handheld use. When using the pile dynamic testing instrument, protective sleeves 6 are installed and fixed on both sides of the instrument body 8. The two sets of protective sleeves 6 can provide auxiliary protection against collisions and impacts to the outside of the instrument body 8. At the same time, multiple sets of protruding strips 12 are evenly spaced on one side of the protective sleeves 6, which can play a role in preventing slippage when holding the instrument body 8. During testing, the right side of the test harness 7 is connected to the connector 10, and the bottom end of 7 is glued and fixed to the pile. Then, the top of the pile is struck to generate stress waves in the pile foundation. The stress waves propagate through the pile foundation and along the pile foundation direction. Finally, the test data is obtained according to the one-dimensional elastic rod stress wave fluctuation theory.
[0033] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
